Hi guys, my 5 month old has been doing green poos for nealy 2 weeks. Doctor and health visitor says not to worry but everywhere I read, it says it's a sign that something's not right. Any advice or info please?

If its mucousy what does that indicate?? My sons poo has always been yellow/orangish and occasionally lime green but my PED has never been concerned even though I have!! She always said as long as he's pooping my son is 13 weeks

I swear dd had had neon green poop that could glow in the dark lol but yes it's the froth or mucous that could indicate infection or intolerance to milk protein or something else. dd had green mucousy poop for a while with no other symptoms of anything. I tried eliminating dairy for a few weeks among other things and I could never pin it down so I don't believe that even mucous is always a cause for concern.

My four month old had weird green poo-frothy often-for a month then it just stopped. I was going to eliminate dairy when he had a yellow one. Weird. Nothing else was wrong. He slept fine, was happy, just the poo.

I'm not saying this is the case- but with us around 2 months my DD's stool turned green. The dr and nurses assured me 'any variation from brown yellow to green is normal'. But I knew it was something else- I took a 'sample' in and had them test it for blood- sure enough, it was positive. After trips to a GI specialist, we found that my daughter had a milk and soy protein intolerance. I eliminated both from my diet and it took a few months for my system to clear it all out, but once we did she was just fine. Im sure you'd know by now if this were your problem but trust your mommy instincts.
